Alto is my go-to for entry level PA gear. 👍
Personally I would say Alto is a million times better than entry level.
Alto sounds great.. How does QSC K12.2 compare to Alto? I know qsc have 6 year warranty, but they are also more than twice the price of Alto
@@SeanDon456 QSC gets a little louder and sounds a little better. You should go listen to some and see if it's worth twice the price.
Rcf sounds better then both. The art 3 series is more expensive then alto yes, but it blows it out of the water for sound quality, frequency response, punch and presence. Very musical, and sounds better then the more expensive qsc too. Punches above its price like the alto, except its punching in a different class. The extra power of the alto didn't seem usable turned up where as the rcf doesn't flub out at all.
WOW I have 2 b215d and they've never failed me. 10 years later and they're still rocking.
Great speakers, I'm going on 18 years with one and last year the aux gave out and I fixed it myself
Respectfully I disagree with you. I had them when I first started and I got lot of compliments on them. I open the cabinet to clean the inside and surprise. They had eminence delta 15lfd. Thats better that any of the Chinese woofers. Like alto and other beginners brands. And if you put a sub they will rock the house and whit a good controller even better.
i guess Im kinda off topic but does anyone know of a good website to stream newly released movies online ?

@Derrick Enoch Thank you, I went there and it seems to work :D I really appreciate it !
@Milo Quinn You are welcome xD
Funny, my middle school used these, along with a matching Small Berhinger mixer. This system was used for all school meetings for talk, but they also sometimes played music over them. The mic input was completely messed up, and sometimes sounded like an alien was talking through it! (If anyone knows why this is, let me know.) While they had bass, they needed a subwoofer badly. Also, half the time, the mixer only put sound out to one speaker!
My current (high) school uses Mackie SRM450 V2s, and a full-blown Mackie 24-channel mixer! Huge difference, it actually sounds great!
24 channels? Damn
I just buy one set 2 for amazing price very impressed sounds amazing now I have 4 with my pair harbingers 🥰
Are they good?
@@molotowop i have been a dj/singer for 25 years and these are the best speakers i have ever used
One of the better reviews on UA-cam, Thank You
Nice explanation on the speaker specs and reasonable opinion, but at least a comparison with Alto even if compared to TS1/2 series would've added much more value, nevertheless, I really like your channel and trust your judgment.
Lo maximo yo tengo uno calidad en sonido y claridad lo uso para karaoke y amplificacion y lo bueno que es economico no tiene nada que envidiar a las demas marcas
I have 2 x Behringer Eurolive B112D and the B215D speaker as a woofer. They are so good and plenty grunt. I the negatives given depends on soung mix and hearing. Mine are all ready to rock. 😂❤
Alto is awesome when EQ right TS308 TS310 and TS315. Plus the price is right.
Hi I’m using an alto -ZMX122FX
Which kind of speaker do I need for it
Thanks
Can you do a review on the harbinger v2315...
Hay Henry, we don't have in Canada. It looks like the go to brand at 🎸 center
Very fair and accurate review
Hi there, can I use this loudspekers on an extern interface in my home studio ? I know there are better loudspeakers for that, but I got these speakers as an inheritance. Thanks in advance. 👍
Haha, I can tell ur not enthusiastic about reviewing the Behringer because you've already made up your mind it's a piece of shit lol. I can see ur struggling to say nice things about it. I've had my Behringer B115D for 4 years and it still going strong. I upgraded to Mackie Thump 15a 6month later I sold it and went back to Behringer. The Behringer was cleaner louder and tight with Behringer 15'' subs it kicked ass. I've done a wedding with 300 people, not a problem at all.
Same here! I I have had the B115D for years now, and it's held up! I Still use it when I play live as a keyboard monitor. And this was all beforee I bought a 12" sub for dual FOH use! I had 2 more of them in my cart at Sweetwater, but wanted to try the Gemini 115BT (reviewed by Robin) instead so when they arrived at my door on Saturday, I will run them through the paces with the sub and then review the process here. But if I need to go with my sainted Behringers B115D's , I know where to get'em!
I did find it interesting how Robin "dissed" the Behringer. But could it be Behringer would make the newer " B215D" worse than the B115 first edition? That doesn't make sense!!
He said it all, and very accurate. I’ve used it for Dj monitor, they sound flat. Compared to even the Alto TS115a, they are as loud, but Alto beats them hands-down in sound quality and fidelity
Yeah untill them altos blow out. I had alto and never again
HELLO EXPERT I noticed that one of my EUROLIVE Powered speakers only had sound coming out of the Woofer so I ordered and installed a new Tweeter Diaphragm but when I powered the unit up it's squealed!!! I took it back apart double checked all the wiring everything is in the correct place! Tweeter is mounted in the correct position! There's no smell or anything burning from the Amplifier section! The Woofer works fine! Can you tell me what that could possibly be wrong!
What is the power difference between the B115D, B115W and B212D series? Which is the newest models?
Boy I wish I watched this before buying a B112D. I literally just bought one of these yesterday as a back up unit and for very small events. Behringer is a 'name' brand so I didn't bother listening in store and thought it would be on a par with other brands at this entry level price point and should be alright for DJ use. I just fired it up today and did a test. It's exactly as you say. It's loud for sure but it's all about the midrange. The top is harsh at high volume and the bass is almost non-existent in comparison. Had to roll the tops off, cut a large amount of mid range and give the bass a small boost just to make it sound OK. The high/low adjustment on the unit does not provide adequate control to sort out the midrange. I guess it's probably a great PA speaker but not really an 'all rounder' and not great for DJ use. Might have to take a haircut on it, move it on and try something else.
Behringer has a name alright, but its not a good name. They've always had a reputation as cheap nasty chinese made knock-offs.
They've rehabilitated that reputation a little bit with some of their newer gear, (Ie their synths are actualy pretty great for knock-offs, and the X32s are apparently really good) but this aint new and comes from the bad old days of poorly built gear with terrible specs. Pretty much anything with "Eurolive" in the name is definately something to avoid.
That said, they purchased Turbosound a while back, and that was a very well regarded brand for PA stuff, and I believe its still that way.
Both comments are spot-on
What about the Behringer B112D, do you think the HF driver sounds a lot cleaner than this B215D?
it sounds like shit. I own a pair, tjey are kept in storage. I onñy use them for smoking bar gigs or pool parties. Terrible sound, and start clipping quick
Okay, so, what has great bottom end with pleasing voice???
Translated: "...doesn't get as good of a deal for selling the Behringer brand as others".
Do you have a video on Harbinger 12"???
that's why you use a sub base cabinet
You are right. I don't like it for the same reason. Only way I got them to sound ok for live was with a driverack tuner. They sound as if the hard plastic was made at of hard bone
Where can I get a replacement 1.5 compression horn driver for my Berhinger Eurolive B208D?
I have a question. I have the beringher 802usb mixer and it only has one main out. I need two
My behringer b205d has a scratchy volume i used dexo on the main pot but still same problem. Whatelse can be the issue
I got one of the 12" euro speakers that's 600wat its not even close to 100watts turned all the way up. Doesnt seem true to wattage. Not sure what the problem is. Maybe cause I only bought 1 speaker that has amp. Anyway I can improve?
I used these for 10 years as a Karaoke host. I've gotten complements about the sound from every place I did a show. Never, ever a complaint. I've been told by singers they felt like they were being backed by a live band! I strongly disagree with this review!
I play ukulele and sing so there's basically no bass needed. Sounds perfect for me xD
What is the different behringer b15d and redback c 1010
Please can you assist me with my behringer I don't no why it makes a lot of buzzing sound
How to get it
Behringer b 912 neo options?
Would this PA work as a keyboard speaker in a band? I have a Yamaha Montage and is being fed through an IPAD mixer, but I needed something to help the keyboard cut through the mix, monitors and other speakers. Thx.
It should, but have a look at the ALTO TS315 for live I think you will like the sound better with tons of power to do the job.
whats the best setup for a karaoke system?
Behringer technical support is poor, but it real is a good pa speaker !
Their 15 inch subs aren't to bad.. clip easy if you use boost but not a bad speaker
If i were to give a review id say the same thing hes saying.. very midrange
And base almost nonexistent.. if you listen to latin music exclusively it will do a decent job.. for hip hop you better get a good sub.
Connects wont pair
What is the other options that u mention in this video? i want something for Dj outside people around 50 - 200 people
Hi expert island, I can’t believe I can’t tool up my monitor system. I ve got a yamaha10 mixer /fox, a JBL 10” sub and Kali 6.5” monitors. They all light up and non appear damaged. I plug XLR from mixer to sub in and 2XLRF from out to speakers. Nothing got any ideas?
Ridiculous to expect impartial, non-biased advice from a re-seller of competitive products. Worthless advice.
I do look for the Good in a Products and at the Time I made this Video I was a Behringer Dealer. But Behringer to increase profits has pulled out of local Deals and only sells to a couple of Mega-Stores.
No sound test 👎
"here's what it sounds like, just take my word for it"
it is a genoration old now
What’s the difference between b215d and b115d ?
B215d is older than b115d. Doesn't mean it is better or worse. Some companies make new products worse because they establish brand value with a prior product that maybe had a little less margin, so they can make that money back on a more cheaply made product. Bit of a ramble there. Hope you understand.
I have not compared the two. I've HEARD that the 215/2 is maybe a little better than the 115/2, ie, sounds roughly the same, for a lower price.
@@alphanumeric1529 I have 2x 115d and 1x b1500 subwoofer. I got rid of my mackies. In my opinion, i was getting way better sounds out the Behringer then the mackies. Highly recommends the Behringer. over 2years running and it's still going strong. I have convinced my friends to get rid of their mackies and go, Behringer, and they have and very happy.
@@viperstinger77 what do you think about the vq1800 sub with b215?
Sir, how are you going to critique a product and not test it? This is the only speaker I will ever buy. Parts are interchangeable/ replaceable. Try that with MAckie.... YOU ARE NOT EVEN A DJ!!! These speakers take a BEATING and keep on ticking. DONT LIE TO THE PEOPLE , ARE YOU SERIOUS?
Here is the video you want to see and hear ua-cam.com/video/boQw1aFh7UY/v-deo.htmlsi=MIXBH7cAMcpSuLKe
this speaker is desinged to run with a sub
Basse kick very bad..
Stay away from anything behringer, rockville and alto
Behringer = Ewwww
